The Huge Mistake Golfers Keep Making To Start The Swing (Most Don't Even Know It!)

In this golf lesson, Eric Cogorno shares how he helped a high handicap golfer learn to swing from the inside and fix steep downswing problems. The golf drill he demonstrates focuses on backswing connection to create the proper swing plane, helping you master an on-plane downswing path that eliminates pulls, fades, and inconsistent contact.

In This Video, You'll Discover:
• Why fixing your downswing actually starts with mastering your backswing takeaway and creating the proper hand path
• The lead arm connection drill using toe line alignment that ensures your hands travel inside instead of disconnected and out
• How to feel the sternum-to-bicep distance staying constant during your takeaway for a connected golf swing
• The exact checkpoint position (hands in line with bicep/pec) that creates runway space for an inside delivery on every golf swing
• Real student transformation using Swing Coach app with live feedback showing how to swing from the inside consistently
• Why disconnected takeaways always lead to steep downswing problems and how PGA Tour players like Max Homa create depth
• The rehearsal pattern combining lead arm connection, hand path awareness, and trail arm fold for automatic on-plane strikes
Eric Cogorno breaks down the most common cause of steep, over-the-top downswing struggles: a disconnected, out-and-up backswing that leaves no room to swing from inside. Watch as Eric coaches student Giovani through the exact golf drill sequence—lead arm connected to chest, hands traveling in over the toe line, trail arm folding while hands deepen to bicep/pec alignment—that transforms steep pulls and fades into penetrating draws. Plus, see how the Swing Coach app provides instant feedback on hand path and club position throughout the golf swing.
